Example of a Narrative Essay: Tales Round the Campfire.

Example of a Narrative Essay: Tales Round the Campfire.
The big Town Hall clock was striking midnight when Frank began to cross the bridge. The night air was cold and damp. A low mist hung over the river and the street-lamps gave little light.
Frank was anxious to get home and his footsteps rang loudly on the street. When he reached the middle of the bridge he thought he could hear someone approaching behind him.

When about half an hour had passed, Frank saw him climb noiselessly over the wall and heard him drop on to the ground at the other side.
Now Frank's worst suspicions were confirmed. He walked quickly and silently across the street towards a telephone-booth on the corner...
